EverQuest II Video Vault

EverQuest II is finally upon us! Those of you who aren't yet playing might have your wills swayed by this set of high-quality videos, capturing every aspect of the gameplay. We've tracked, by means of high-tech motion-capturing wizardry, every leg of the game's development, so feel free to view this extensive catalogue as a video timeline, of sorts. That's what we do. If you want to know more (and who doesn't?), then mosey on over to our archive of weeklong coverage. It's being updated as speak, be sure to check it constantly! Note: The movies are streaming and take a while to buffer when you first open the video page.

Video #53: Graphical MUD
Demons living alongside mud people. Unity is a beautiful thing. Come with us on an intimate tour of their lands. We'll take you by the hand.

Video #54: "They Called Us Walking Corpses"
Despite the fact that they've been departed for hundreds of years, the restless spirits that inhabit this citadel are a lively bunch. The patchwork horrors that share the place with them, though, are a little on the shier side.

Video #55: I Hate Bees
Don't let the lovely hypnotic patterns of their lair's walls fool you -- these queen bees mean business. Their sweet nectar is a treasure worth protecting, and you can bet that they'll sting your butt (hard) to protect it.

Video #56: C'mon Ride That Train
Choo-choo. See, we told you so. Mess with the bees, and you'll get your bee-hind stung. This is train to rival all trains. It's almost beautiful. You probably had to bee there to understand.

Video #57: You Shall Not Pass
This is the kind of place you don't want to find yourself alone, and without a 'port. In fact, even with those two things, you'd probably get destroyed anyway. Being here makes you realize just how inferior any raid you could put together indeed it.

Video #58: Boom Biddy Bye Bye
The skeletons here don't like goblins (as can be noted by the myriad Byzantine devices scattered about, designed to make them suffer), but they probably like you just as little. The only thing is that straps on the torture table won't fit around your wrists. Lucky.
